Lynn Christine (Waterbury) Hardy, 63, beloved wife, mother, sister, grandmother, and aunt, passed away peacefully in her sleep at her home in American Fork, Utah on Wednesday, August 20, 2014. Born in Dixon, IL on Oct, 25, 1950. She is survived by her forever husband, David; her son, Jeff (Rachel); her five daughters: Terri (Matthew), Michelle, Christina, Andrea (David), and Heather; her brothers John Waterbury (Melinda) and Rick Waterbury (Theresa), as well as her 12 precious grandchildren. She is preceded in death by her father, Lafeyette Waterbury, her mother Gladys Marjorie Clark Waterbury Voland, and her stepfather Glen Voland. She was an active member in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and attended the American Fork 6th Ward. Our mother loved her Savior and her family fiercely. She was instantly loved by everyone she came in contact with. She lit up the room with her laugh, her smile warmed you to your very core, and her hugs relived any heartache. She was the most generous, thoughtful and compassionate woman; a true modern day pioneer. She taught us the meaning of unconditional love and what it truly means to be a family. We will miss you terribly, but not for too long. Families are forever, mom. We will meet you again, in heaven. Funeral services will be held on Saturday, Aug 23, 2014 at 3:00 p.m. in the American Fork 6th Ward Chapel, 300 North 100 East. A viewing will be held from 2:00 p.m. – 2:45 p.m. at the church prior to the service.

I worked with Lynn at Aspen Senior Care, and she was so nice to talk to. She would come in early to relieve me, and I enjoyed this so we could have time to talk before I left. She gave the BEST hugs!! She was like the mother that you were missing or the sister you never had. I loved Lynn! She received Caregiver of the Quarter a few months ago, which is not given to everyone. I was amazed when she showed me a book she had kept with all the inservice lessons she had been studying online, and once she brought a scrapbook to show us of he work at the State School in American Fork. She was a deeply compassionate person with a heart of gold. Her current client called Lynn her "best friend" and is very sad at her passing. I hadn't seen her for a while and had planned to ask her to accompany me to Logan on a work related trip. I was so looking forward to catching up with her. It will have to wait for now. I love you Lynn! My condolences to David and all the kids. My prayers are with you, Rita

I am saddened to hear of Lynn's passing. She was a good and close friend in high school. I was traveling home yesterday from out east and was traveling on I72 an thought of your family when we drove past the Buffalo exit. The last time we visited was when you all lived in Buffalo. I remember the beautiful wedding of Lynn and David and still have pictures. Lynn was a wonderful friend and loved by all. We will all miss her.
